Sooooo much food is processed. Refined sugar, high fructose corn syrup, hydronated oils, (espscially for frying fast foods and preserving processed foods)bleached flour, reduction of fiber.
And we eat more convenience foods which are all processed. As a result, we eat less fruits and veggies. We need it quick and now, but we have no personal responsibility to plan ahead so we can eat the right things. That said, it is more expenswive to eat well and less to eat processed, which is probably why so many poor people seem to be overweight compared with the other end of the economic spectrum. Of course, you usually put your money into what is important to you!
I get kidded all the time about my "snack" and the fact that I pack different foods when I travel. But I make sure i get the right nutrients and don't snack on crap, whihch is soooo easy to do. If I'm full on the right stuff the bad stuff isn't as appealing.
